I had a really great experience at Quynh's home, thank you so much! I really felt like I could immerse myself into local culture and the ethnic people's lifestyles and learnt a lot! I met some really kind people, and Quynh accepted me as part of her family and made me feel really welcome:)) Thank you so much Quynh and family and friends and see you hopefully again!<3

This experience was truly amazing! During my stay, we had 1-3 teachers for a maximum of 7 or 8 students. It's similar to tutoring, there are many chances to get close with the other teachers and the students as well. My students were Easy Riders and I was teaching them English so that they could become a leader for the Ha Giang Loop. It was really unique, and I loveee Mrs. Quynh and Mrs. Van as they really do care about their volunteers and I want to see them again. I feel so at home in Vietnam because of this experience and can't wait to come back!

Volunteering here was one of the highlights of my trip. The food was absolutely delicious every single day, and the students were so kind, welcoming, and eager to learn. Teaching them was such a rewarding experience. A special thank you to Miss Van, who is truly an incredible and generous person. She made everyone feel at home and was always there to help with a smile. I'm so grateful for this experience and the amazing memories I made here. I enjoyed it so much that I'm already planning to come back in two weeks.
